MAGRAM--Saul. The Lauder family and The Estee Lauder Companies are deeply saddened by the passing of our beloved former General Counsel, Saul Magram. Saul's unique intelligence, strategic thinking and warmth created a legacy of business success and enduring friendships during his 31 years at ELC. Saul passed away at his home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida after suffering a brief illness. Saul was a native New Yorker and a magna cum laude graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School. After law school, Saul was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Navy. He joined The Estee Lauder Companies as Secretary, Corporate Counsel in 1968 and soon thereafter became its first General Counsel. Saul was integral to our growth, working closely with Mrs. Estee Lauder, Leonard Lauder and Ronald Lauder. He was instrumental in helping to take our Company public in 1995. Saul was equally passionate in supporting causes and organizations in the arts, education and nature. Saul was a valuable mentor, advisor, advocate, philanthropist and dear friend. Our thoughts are with his family and many friends. Saul had a genuine zest for life, a warm heart and generous soul. He will be remembered with deep love by his former colleagues.
